Development Server

Run the inbuilt local webserver with https://github.com/digitalfabrik/lunes-cms/blob/develop/tools/run.sh:

./tools/run.sh

This is a convenience script which also performs the following actions:

  • Activate the virtual environment

  • Migrate database

  • Import test data on first start

  • Regenerate and compile translation file

If you want to speed up this process and don’t need the extra functionality, you might also use:

./tools/run.sh --fast

or directly:

source .venv/bin/activate
lunes-cms-cli runserver localhost:8080

After that, open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080/.

Note

If you want to use another port than 8080, start the server with lunes-cms-cli and choose another port, or edit https://github.com/digitalfabrik/lunes-cms/blob/develop/tools/_functions.sh.
